How can a hospital, community health centre, or public health office receive the BFI designation?
Health establishments must protect, promote, and support breastfeeding by complying with evidence-based best practices. They must show a 75% exclusive breastfeeding rate, comply with the World Health Organization’s International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes, and implement the 10 steps for successful breastfeeding (in hospitals with maternity unit) and the 7 points plan for community health services.
